This was my last resort
When I saw the extremely negative review from the only other customer commenting on this product, I felt compelled to write my own review. The other review is in regards to the company, not the product, and I want to share MY story, which is about the PRODUCT. I have a 15 year old cat whom I love dearly. Two years ago he developed a rapidly spreading ringworm that was resistant to virtually every commonly available antifungal on the market. I took him to the vet as his hair was falling off at an alarming rate and he itched until he bled. The vet prescribed several prescription topical products, but they didn't work either. Three weeks into our ordeal, my boy was naked over half of his body. Finally, the vet prescribed a prescription oral antifungal - but after only 3 doses, my cat became extremely ill due to catastophic liver failure, and required 10 days of hospitalization. He almost died. When I picked him up to bring him home, the vet shook his head and told me that there was nothing we could do. I did a lot of internet research, and stumbled across this product. Its claims were rather wild, and I'm cautious by nature, but at this point, we were desperate. Many of the testimonials were so favorable that I suspected company employees might be posing as satisfied customers. I ordered a small jar of Sulfinex anyway. It arrived promptly. Three days after beginning treatment - yes, 3 DAYS - my kitty began to respond rapidly. The bleed stopped. The skin began to heal. The hair started to grow back in. Within one month, he was completely healed. That was almost 2 years ago, and he has not had one recurrence. I could not believe it. The vet was amazed, and now recommends Sulfinex to his patients. One last comment: I am a pharmacist. Not all products are created equal, and two compounds with identical ingredients can vary tremendously in their effectiveness depending upon their formula, their chemical composition, and their method of manufacture. The chemistry behind this product is sound, and I believe what this company has done is find a balanced formula of proven antifungals in the correct proportion, micronized the active ingredients so that they will penetrate the skin, and incorporated them into an ointment base that is able to deliver the medication to the deeper layers of the epidermis and dermis. Bottom line, it works.
